It's All About the Ingredients
Like any perfect recipe, high quality, effective ingredients, combined in exactly the right proportions, are critical to a product's success. These are the key ingredients that make Proactiv+ so effective at clearing acne pimples, helping prevent new breakouts, and delivering exceptional skincare benefits like smoother, more radiant skin.
Benzoyl peroxide is widely known as one of the best anti-acne treatments because it starts killing bacteria on contact in the pores, where acne starts. You'll find it in steps 1 and 2 of Proactiv+. Glycolic acid (an alpha hydroxy acid) and salicylic acid (anti-acne treatment) are excellent at sloughing off dead skin cells so that pores don't become clogged. This also helps to minimize the look of pores and give an all-over radiance to skin. Used in the right sequence and in our proprietary Proactiv+ formulations, these tried and true ingredients can control your acne breakouts.
Even more skincare ingredients for even better skin
Proactiv+ offers exceptional skincare benefits, like hydrated, even-toned and radiant-looking skin, and these new ingredients can give you these beautiful results.
